Configuring Datalogic Devices through MDMs

Nowadays, Android technology is progressing quite fast and the enterprise demands have increased. Businesses require that that the network administrator has full control of the terminal through the use of MDM.

For an easier implementation of these systems in the staging and management phase of its devices fleet, Datalogic has introduced special mechanisms within its systems that allow, through an MDM and Android intents, a quick and effective remote configuration of all the installed assets every time a new firmware version is released.

FW Update process is initiated by starting a service, passing as extras the path of the OTA package (.zip file) to be loaded and some optional parameters.
